Just to rub it in for Gunners, we turned this loan down.

Our transfer policy is pathetic.

All our loan offers were rejected, clearly we'll be making a big signing in the Summer which of course is why we're to loan. Just do not understand why we've left until the last couple of days to try when we've needed a striker since Van Persie left really.

Senderos looks set for Valencia, seems dependent on if the Heitinga deal will be done.

Actually staggering that we haven't signed a replacement for Cabaye. Thought he might pull a loan bid for someone out at the 11th hour.

Lack of ambition is amazing.

I think most football fans actually want their clubs to panic buy. I think fans prefer transfers to football now. And when their panic buys turn to shit, and they are in a relegation struggle, they get more transfers.

I certainly don't want a panic buy, I want a player that we've identified as a replacement for Cabaye when he was promised he could leave back when he had talks with Kinnear in October.

It does seem staggering we haven't thought through the idea of finding and making progress to acquire a replacement for Cabaye when the backroom team knew he was going to leave this month. They could have at least made an effort to find somebody to bring in before Cabaye buggered off.

Its even depressing we hadn't even put up the energy to find panic buys, or the fact Kinnear was the last permanent signing of any kind in the football side of the club.

According to Twitter he pissed at least 2 agents off due to being drunk and offering staggeringly low wages to players.

It's amazing he's allowed anywhere near the footballing side of things really. Then again if he wasn't I really dunno why he'd be here.

Wasn't aimed at you, more at football in general. People don't seem to realise that a lot of the clubs in the relegation zone are in there because of their transfer policies. Teams like West Ham and Sunderland have spent loads on shite, struggle, can't offload anyone, sign more shite as short term measures,

Aston Villa are still struggling because of the MON era, when they spent massive amounts on 'ambition'. Fulham have been forced to spend £12m on a striker today, as the four very expensive strikers at the club have failed miserably, leaving them in the relegation zone.

C'mon really, you're believing ITK's know?

Although I do like the idea Kinnear is the finance guy at the club.

Apparently reports in Spain are confirming Ter Stegen to join Barcelona in June


Was this already widely known since xmas when Ter Stegen decided he was leaving in the summer and everyone already knew Valdes was leaving Barca in the summer?

#LFC had an agreement with Konoplyanka. Owner of FC Dnipro refused to sign the paperwork

I don't think the ITK I found is true, but some of the stuff wouldn't surprise if it was true. We won't know for sure because the club's social media communication is largely to plug cheap merchandise and Kings of Leon gigs, while a journalist who printed the story would almost certainly get banned because that's what the club do.

Arsenal have sent Park on a loan to Watford. I know almost all Arsenal fans call him a horrendous signing, but really the reason he turned out bad was because Wenger never gave him a chance. He really never recovered from not playing during his time there, which showed in his loan move to Celta Vigo last year.

Really sad to watch his situation the last few years, because before he was Korea's best striker and he would've developed into a better one had he stayed at Lille. Hopefully a lower level of football does him good.

Bollocks to Sam & Gold.....Palace, Fulham and Cardiff got good new players.

Maiga gone to QPR for loan

Razvan Rat leave West Ham.

Only new Borriello (striker), Nocenico (midfielder), Armero (left back) and Razak (midfielder) for West Ham.....we need fucking centre defenders!

Unsure.

Didn't they sign Roger Johnson on loan?

I still don't think Cardiff will survive - the boat got rocked way too much when Mackay was dismissed. But who knows, certainly in a relegation battle as tight as the current one.

He definitely has the talent, I haven't seen enough of him to see his consistency.

How much did Lazio get for him?


Between €15m and €20m, it differs from source to source but taking away the add-on's it's looking like €16m.

He had 18 months left on his contract and kept saying he wanted to wait till after the World Cup before deciding his future, by then we'd have been lucky to get more than €7m/€8m so we kinda had to sell now.
